Workshop receipts
Workshop receipts, a Victorian British practical handbook of trade recipes and workshop methods, compiled by Ernest Spon and collaborators and published in London and New York by E. & F.N. Spon in 1883 for tradesmen and mechanics. Its pictures are plain line diagrams of apparatus such as a tapered furnace or kiln, a mechanical fitting with lettered parts, a wired stand, and a wheel mounted in a box, useful to designers seeking simple technical schematic linework and lettered callouts.
